The Top of the Range: the 8x11 Hardcover Real Photo Paper Album
Of all our best photo books, this is the one. Everything we can put into a custom photo book is in this one: our largest page, genuine photographic paper in matte or glossy, layflat binding that opens to a 22 x 8 inch uninterrupted spread, and a rigid printed cover holding it all together.
It is the photo album to choose when the photographs are the point, and the format we would pick to print photo books meant to outlast us. A wedding, a milestone anniversary, a body of work you want presented properly. At 120 pages it holds a complete story at a scale where every image is given room.
When an 8x11 Hardcover Real Photo Paper Book Is Worth It
This is the most expensive photobook we make, and it should not be the default. If your photos are everyday phone pictures destined to be flipped through casually, 8x11 softcover photo books serve better.
Choose this when the source photographs are good enough to reward the paper, when spreads need to run unbroken, and when the book is meant to be kept for decades rather than months.
